Gold Market: As customs duties are reduced, silver will be present in the gold market
Gold market: With higher customs duties imposed in India ahead of this year's budget, a large number of gold lovers residing in the country eased their way to the UAE to buy gold. Gold prices in India have also fallen due to the cut in customs duty this year, which may reduce interest in buying gold abroad. Gold jewelers are hoping for good profits this year. Gold traders say the UAE's dominance will wane. This is because Indian buyers who buy jewelery in Dubai will now prefer to buy in India. With lower customs duties, India's gold jewelery production is expected to increase, allowing goldsmiths to create new, elaborate designs. Then customers will be attracted to buy gold in India instead of abroad.
